Advertising the food spot on rightmove, McEwan Fraser Legal say the 'current owners are offering a full turnkey business to a discerning buyer who will have all the tools in place to start business immediately'.

Describing the opportunity, the agents comment: "We are delighted to present this freehold property, currently running as a delightful café/restaurant in the heart of Balerno, set in a prime location on Main Street.

The food spot is hugely popular with locals (McEwan Fraser Legal)

"The business gains most off its custom from passing trade and has an exceptional reputation within the area and is being sold as a going concern with the space and facilities to further expand this already successful venture.

"Carlyle's Bar & Restaurant is a superb opportunity to purchase a well-known, established business with developable capacity or services delivered, limited only by a new owner's vision such as opening hours and online service provision."

It seems like a great opportunity to take on a much-loved cafe in the local community, with offers over £300,000 sought for the freehold tenure.
